Taking a dog or cat to the pound is almost always a death sentence according to the State Veterinarian's office.

Last year, statewide figures show that more than 131-thousand of 221-thousand companion animals handled by pounds and shelters were put to sleep.
That comes to just under 60 percent.
By contrast, only about 29 percent -- went home with families.
